MUSIC TINDERSTICKS - CLAIRE DENIS FILM SCORES (1996-2009) - 2011
Constellation Records will be releasing a very special 5 CD/5 LP box set compiling all of the soundtracks that members of Tindersticks have created for the films of French director Claire Denis over the past 15 years. The set gathers all six of the Claire Denis soundtracks written and performed by Tindersticks or their members; Stuart A. Staples (for L'Intrus) and Dickon Hinchliffe (for Vendredi Soir), alongside four others credited to the full band. Four of the six soundtracks are previously unreleased, including the score for her most recent and hugely acclaimed White Material, which has also received Criterion treatment.
The CD and LP sets each come in a slipcase box made from deluxe uncoated black paperboard with a custom die- cut window and metallic cover-print. Discs are housed in printed sleeves, each of which features an iconic image from the corresponding film that can interact with the window-cut box. Also included is a 48 page perfect-bound booklet of color film stills and an essay (in English and in French translation) by renowned music writer Michael Hill.
Tindersticks' Claire Denis Film Scores 1996-2009 is out April 26, 2011 on Constellation Records. Tindersticks will perform a live score retrospective with Claire Denis film projections at the SF Film Fest this May. Details to be announced in the coming weeks.

EXHIBITION REGENERATION2 - AZZEDINE ALAÏA GALLERY - PARIS - MAY 2011
ReGeneration2 at Azzedine Alaïa Gallery, Paris
It’s a hint as to what we might expect to see from the next generation of photographers. For the second instalment of the ReGeneration project, the Musee de l’Elysee presents ReGeneration2 at Azzedine Alaïa’s gallery in Paris. The enterprising project occurring every five years, showcases the work of 80 emerging photographers on the brink of beginning their career. In the age of digital revolution, image-makers is a most fitting term for these new talents, whose individual visions and technique are as varied as the 30 different countries they are from. David de Beyter takes us on a trip to an “urban countryside” - or a living paradox that seemlessly balances between artifice and nature shrouded in the anonymity of modern times. Meanwhile, Margo Ovcharenko, Jen Davis and Jennifer Osborne explore a contemporary reportage and portraiture, with Osborne presenting a reportage of youth from her generation - but that of a delinquant, criminalised youth in the streets of Rio de Janeiro. Perhaps most intriguing is Geoffrey H. Short, Nominee for the Lacoste Elysée Photography Prize 2010, whose series Towards another (Big Bang) Theory captures the sublime in staged fire explosions. To the unknowing viewer, it is volatile beauty, danger and our fragile existence. ReGeneration2 is on view until 22 May at Gallery Azzedine Alaïa, 18 Rue de la Verrerie, Paris.
